Skye would do anything for her adopted daughter Ava, including pouring a pitcher of water over Ford Stanton’s head and ordering him to leave town when he informs her he’s Ava’s biological father. If Ford had shown up earlier in his daughter’s life, he could have saved her from the living hell Ava endured at the hands of her biological mother. Ford Stanton is twelve years too late to come swaggering in with his devastatingly good looks, his money, and his bossy attitude disrupting the equilibrium she’s established in Ava’s and her home. There’s no room for him in their lives. Period. And there certainly is no room for him in their hearts.
When Ford asks Skye to give him five days for her to change her mind about him, she reluctantly agrees for Ava’s sake. Five days. That’s all. He couldn’t possibly change her mind in five days, could he?
